Started from SR 87 and went in about 1.5 miles and brushed the for a couple of hours. The weather started okay but then rain came along with some thunder. I decided to call it quits and bailed.

A group of us drove in to the short cut to the AZT near the Sycamore crossing. From there we brushed catclaw for about a mile to the FR 1452 crossing. Great weather!

A group of us spent one more day on the reroute 1.5 miles north from Cross F trailhead.
We widened a couple of narrow areas, pulled a few more roots and moved some piles of brush.

Started from SR 87 and went in just under 4 miles and cleaned up 20 drains and built 3 or 4 new ones. Did some brushing on the way back.

A group of us completed the reroute 1.5 miles north from Cross F trailhead. We opened the new trail and closed off the old route.
We will do one more day to make adjustments and “polish” the final route :)

A group of us cleared a dozen+ deadfall along the Highline between Mail creek and Chase creek. Saw no one else. Lots of sign of deer, elk and bear. A few small patches of snow. Weather was chilly at the start (32F) and okay at the end (49F).

A group of us continued the reroute about 1.5 miles north of the cross f trailhead. Today we made our first pass building the trail benches and trail tread on the first 500’. Beautiful weather today :)

A group of us “corridor brushed” an 800’ reroute about 1.5 miles in from the cross f trailhead. The reroute avoids a washed out, veed section of trail that also gets muddy after rain / snow. Great weather :)

Started from SR 87 parking (N-side road) and went north about 1.5 miles and turned around. Brushed catclaw and scrub oak on the way back. Didn't see anyone or anything else except for a few quail :lol:

Four of us did Sunflower trail as a shuttle hike. We left a vehicle on the old Beeline at Sunflower and drove around to Cross F ranch trailhead. We took Little Saddle Mtn trail to the AZT and then took that south back to Sunflower.
Only saw 3 hunters, all wanting to get a white tail buck. We saw a group of does just after we saw the hunters! But I think at least one of the hunters had already seen those.

A group of us drove in a mile+ and then took a short cut to the AZT. Part of the group crossed Sycamore Creek and headed north to do tread work and brushing. The other group headed south to brush catclaw and scrub oak.
Had another lone F-35? scream by below Boulder Mountain and cross over the gap between Mt Ord and Cypress Peak! Cool!

Started from SR 87 parking (N-side road) and went to the underpass and brushed north for about a mile.
Saw two SOBO section hikers, Peeley to Roosevelt or Superior (TBD)
Double flat tire due to metal spike placed in the parking area!

Four of us cleared 6 deadfall between Mail creek and Chase creek. Also fixed a blown-out drainage and brushed on way back.
Saw a mountain biker and a trail runner.

A group of us started from Cross F trailhead and took Little Saddle Mtn trail to the AZT and continued north for a couple of miles building drains and brushing. Some fall color starting.

Started from SR 87 parking (N-side road) and went to the underpass and brushed everything encroaching on the trail for the first half mile to the first gate.

Just after I started a single F-35 screamed by not very far above me! I grabbed my phone as I was expecting a second one to follow but no second jet :(

Saw a SOBO through hiker from Germany, she was disappointed about starting at the south rim and said she would have delayed to another year except her flight was non-refundable.

Started from Cross F Ranch Trailhead. Took the connector to the AZT and went south. Did some brushing at the creek crossing and then headed south to the tank. Cleared one deadfall on the way back.

When I started there were 9 APS / contractor trucks (Progressive something) some with trailers and ATVs at the trailhead. Apparently, inspecting the transmission line along FR 393.

On my way back I took FR393 back down to the trailhead and ran into 6 Maricopa Sheriff S&R trucks coming up FR 393 at the gate. I asked the last driver if they were doing a search for someone and he said no just on patrol!
I told him I would get the gate, he seemed happy about that!
